Rusev situation

[Francis White]

I’m curious do you guys think Rusev is the 2020 Ryback? Had a spark when he started and now he garbage. Rusev was talked about as the most in demand free agent when he got cut. Then he signed with nobody. Not AEW or Impact or NJPW. Even Noway Jose got signed before him. Do you think he believed his own hype and thought Tony Khan would throw the bag to him that he played himself by staying home playing video games? @Art Barr brought up a great point. He doesn’t have a single memorable match. Not one in my opinion. What was his standout feud? Against Dolph?
Keith Lee and Dominik and Kross are all better big men that he his.
Do you think Lana and the internet gassed his head up and now he got the COVID , it’s too late for him to get a bag?

 

[TheGodling]

Nah, you dead wrong.

 

[Reality Check]

A) he got fed into the inCenarator early and never fully recovered

B) he has covid so any sort of plans right now are on hold until he fully recovers

 

[Playaz Eyez]

He was screwed over by losing to Cena and feuding with Dolph Ziggler over Lana. He also has COVID

 

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

The main roster non-competes literally finished last Saturday and dude has Coronavirus. The only reason that we've seen any of the ex WWE guys who got let go, is because Impact just happened to have a PPV that night.

I think he'll do something that allows him to work in New Japan when he comes back. They love them a hoss over there. If Prince Albert can go over there and have crowds Rusev will be fine.

Rusev is far from a “2020 Ryback”

 

[XannyWarbucks]

The put him against Cena and killed him dead in his first run. Then, he was floundering about until the Rusev Day stuff. I knew they'd fukk it up, which they did when they added Lana for no reason. Lana and him didn't really have chemistry once they let Rusev talk on his own and Lana lost the accent.

As for where his career is going, it does seem that way. RyBack did charge a ridiculous fee so nobody went after him. I don't know what Rusev will do, because wrestlers aren't really interesting enough to run a Twitch. I think only Paige is successful and apparently she just has her tittes out for most of her streams.

Okay. Show me his signature match.
@Art Barr was right. He don’t have one. Rusev is full of charisma but that’s it.

 

[Jmare007]

No.

Close thread.

Exactly. Paige is catering to her neck beard fans.

Actually no. EC3 and Gallows and Anderson and FTR and Heath and everyone who got released had took the time to film promos to showcase their talent. Promos and Instagram post got FTR jobs and they are killing it over there. Same with Broadie Lee. Rusev didn’t do shyt but be a goof till he got fired and didn’t do shyt to rehab his image. Also please show me his best match. Rusev doesn’t have one top 10 match in the E in his entire time there.

 

[Reality Check]

Also Ryback aka Gold Van Damn Berg, was garbage in the ring and fairly reckless. It speaks volumes that he hasn't popped up anywhere since his release from the WWE.

 

[Carl Tethers]

Okay. Show me his signature match.

@Art Barr is a senile idiot

Rusev is a good wrestler, you’re talking about him as if he’s Mason Ryan. Rusev doesn’t have any classic matches, but if you think back during his career, exactly who would he have had a classic match with? Dolph? Aiden English? Mark Henry? Jack Swagger? He really has feuded with anybody worthwhile like that outside of Orton and Cena, both who need guys to carry them.
